THE ACTUALITIES OF THE SIT U ATI ON- A Republican party national political ! campaign, is never one of niere personalities. It never degererate-i into that. While the Republican party eaves the' crown of public honor, for its actual leadership, it is always a party of principles. It is a party of aims. It is always a party of construction. The party supports the interevs of America, not of any individual American. Under it8 6way, the vast, indu trial system, hi;s made our country the richef-t atid the grandest in the worid. Touay the It-- puuiican party siita couimi trd tu ai great and precious trust; the political supremacy and eecuiity of nil tht j p America nas actoinp!ireJ. it guarantees the ultimas tafet of the tes? interests of its peoj ;e.

It i a party tb'at represents in its principles and in their applicatioc, th? bs? and the most advanced thought of the world; the highest form of the human government; the greates' amount of liberty to the cit.zeu. In the face of uch facts, even the intimation, thai there is in harmony of a disruptive character, in the Reputlican party, is a libel. It i an impeachment of the good sense of any in telligent Republican to say, that be. cause his cnoice of a laader was uot the choice of the National Convention, ergo, he will fail to accept the duties and privileges of his party. When social order is threatened; when financial order is threatened; when the stability of our institutions is threatened; when from any cause, the great heart of the American people is moved to a s-nse of .danger, Republicans thrown a-ide at once all minor diff. r ncefc, and gather around the chosen leader and his standard of Renublicauism, as the n en in blue, gathered around the oi l ti-g iu the dark days of tne natioD. As that flag j represented the principle of Atmrict?n ! union, eo the man w ho ie cnot-n by the ' representatives of the party, represents t the principles of the party. To that man, Bnjami-e Hairisjn; the man who stood by ther?e pr.nciples iu peace and in war; w ho has been faith ful to them; who has grown in vv.sdoiu and p.obitv, in diulmiacv and itra,-r,v" P16 BDU uolH Itxl OI wage craft; a man cf hjneM conviction- and n fi-ft Jlace- W,th ueh ahard "d un-t he courage of tbe,. the R u'Vi -an ! l,jle fact staring the city in Ihe face party will give its stre.i.h.

Men qualified by intelligence ;a.1 common honest', to belong to tr e R ub'i'-an party, are not going to abandon it magnificent pretence &od prest-ce on any mere transient whimsicality of personal like or di like. The very best manhood of this natutn hs cryetalized in the Republican party. It is a mn hood of conviction, .f principle, of moral motive, that outreacbes and absorbs ail personality, in political campaign. Let all Republicans reineaiber that if the Democrats w in this fail they will undoubtedly get control of every department of the government and have full swing. The four years Cleveland spent in the white house, handicapped by a Republican senate, will be as in-nocous desuetude" itself compared to the exploits of the Democracy when in full power and free t let themselves loose. Owing to the peculiar situation the Democrats, if they win this fall, will probably carry everything with them. They have not had such a chance eince the war and they are getting ready for such a fight a9 is not often seen. If there ever be a time for Republicans to sulk or lose or throw sway their votes ii is net this year. Ae one of the most distinguished Republican leaders said recently: "Men areuotbing; the party is everything." Tue result of the election next Novem- i ber will be felt for the next quarter of a century. Jeiry Simpson called Snodgrass of r A?Hid trm. Cleveland is jast now prenting a very undignified picture of a scramble for a third Domination. No Democrat hr.s the temerity to suggest a southern man as a candidate for J president. The oi l frame of hood wink ing fcooie northern eiaie lo help or i the solid eouth by choosiig a northern candidate will not be changed this year. In the Republican senate the free silver men got a f.ir bearing, while in the Democratic house they had debate cut f by gag law, aud in consequence of Seaker Crisp's extraordinary ruling they were uot permitted even to have a vote ou the free coinage bi:l. T get rid of important questions by Uhg law and and arbitrary parliamentary rulings is a Domocratic, and not a Republican method. It is to be hoped that the performance, of candidates killing each other off will be confined to the Democratic party. The Republican party wi'I need the help of all its members next November, all of those plead with the candidate as well as those whose favorites were uot selected. The proposition of Marshal Roche to tet aide eoine back street or obscure alley, for the use ol public wameu is an excellent one and should be seriously considered by the authorities. The 750 yard limit works serious hardships to many repeetab;e families and neighborhoods, by the location of bouses cf iii r-.'pu'e iu them, and thie could be ayo:led by f. showing the suggestions offered by the Marshal. Such move would undoubtedly be acceptable, to the 1 pririits in q.iesnon and it would relieve sjtectabie leigbborhoods of their If tne Dmorrats at C licaga are as wi-leiy at variance over i-heir Prtsideu-choice a the Deaiocrats of Tii'.'son ir they.wiil not be ab e to make nrm- at ion in tt.at for the ele .ton.

It is a bhre, open, fcucburned square that the city can well afford to part with for a reasonable recompense. We do not, however favor selling it as a whole, butwe do favor it- cutting down to 10 acres. That will Le sufficient for park purposes for this city for the next 20 years to come, and by the time Tucson has overgrown the same as a pleasure resort, it will be in order to establish a park east of the railroad as the city will nndoubted'y grow in that direction. So we say cut it down if it can be done to the advantage of the city. With the money thu realiz-nJ, the remaining ten acre- could be improved and made into a b-autiful park or the " money could be used as a nucleus for a sewerage fund, a something the city is fearfully and wonderfully in need of.

' can indefinitely continue ur 1-ss Kome thing is done to carry off the waste and ref Jse with w hich the ground is becoming so saturated. Something in the shape of a good sewerage system should be adopted and that too before it is too lnte to avert a great evil. Fob cold comfort to the Democrncy who have been flattarinqf themselves that the bare men ion of Harr eon's name in Colorado would throw the good people of that state into a fit of hysteric we take pleaenre in republishing the following editorial from the Denver Republican, the leading paper in Colorado. It says: President Harrison's renorninatior. which was accomplished on the first ! ballot yesterday by an overwhelming for the Republican party in Xoveinber. i Among ad the men ejioken of for this nomination durirg the past vear he was i i .u t l- i .. ( by fay the fittest, and in selecting him ) the Republican Xational Convention 1 added another triumph of wisdom to I the many wno have distinguished simi-' 1 l a: : i i lAl LKJUIfB IU IUH JJilfciU It is not necessary at this time to s;eak of his fitness to the honor thus bestowed upon him, because his administration during the first term proves that to the satisfaction of all. He has , 6tood up level with every emergeucy he r has been called upon to face both at j home and abroad, and it is impossible t J imagine any contingency or complication in the affairs of the government with which he could not. deal as ruc-cesssfully .as any other man who -has ever held the otlije of president. That he will be. re-elected by an increased maj rity is our sincere belief. He has been tried and not found wanting during one term, and no good Republican can withold his bal'ot from hicn in November. Thit his candidacy will call out the fu'.l strength of the p irty at the polls is proved by the fact that it did so in lcSS, when be was little known. Since then he has grown immeasur ably in the estimation of his fellow citizens, legard'ess of partisan tian, and especially in the contidenca of h's ow n party. The Republican feels just pride in recalling the fact that for more than a year it has rteadfastly predicted the renomination of Mr. H irrison on the first ballot, and as usual in all important public matters, our judgment has been approved by the rpi It,. We also correctly foretold the course that would be t.ken by the convention on the two leading questions of silver coinage and the purity of the ballot. Rkferino to the action of Senator Teller find Wolcot at the Minneapolis Convention it says: They denount-ed the International Monetary Conference as a fraud and a fake, merely designed to aid in securing the renomination of the president, and yet when the platform heartily indors ing the couference was presented to the convention, they had not a word to say against it. If they mad 3 any right for free coinage the public has no knowledge of it, and they have simply proved that they were as impotent to help the cause of silver in Minneapolis as they had shown themselves to be at Wash ington. It is to be h-ped, now that the convent on is over, that Messrs. Teller, Wol-cott and Townend will have an accession of good sens and good Republicanism sufficient to induce theia to support the ticket heartily from this time on. When the Republicans of Colorado come to consider the results of the convention calmly and carefully, we feel assured that t ey will reach the almost nuaiiiiaous judgment that the ticket and the platform dese i ve their loyal support, and we confidently predict a larger majority lor President Hanison next November than he received in this s:ate four vears go. Accordino t- the Los Angeles Times Ar-.zjGi has the same population as Wyoming, which was admitted into the Union two years ago New Mexico bad a larger population twenty years ago ihn either Idaho or Wyoming has today. At the last census New Mexico had moreinhabitants than the States of Idiho and Wyoming combined. There is hardly any doubt that Arizona and New Mexico will coon be full stars in the Union banner. THE ONLY WOMAN FREE MASON. he AVa Made a Mvmlicr of the Order to l'reserve Its Secrets. The only female free mason in the world lives in Oakland, Cal., at Xo. 572 Tenth street. Ilcr name is Mrs. Salome Anderson, and her portrait adorns the temple of Live Oak lodge. Xo. 01, where it is placed in a position of honor among' the pictures of the past masters. The story of hov she became one of the craftsmen is interesting. She was born in Alsace-Lorraine in ISIS, and becoming an orphan at an eirly age she went to Paris to reside with her uncle, who was a zealous and prominent mason. The lodge, meetings were held in his house, and with th curiosity of her sex she concealed herself in the room during a couple cf the sessions, and thus learned some of the mysteries of the order. She was. however, caught while thus hiding, and the secrets that she had discovered were then made a sacred trust, for she was received into the fraternity. She located in Oakland in 1S54. and in isc. her husband was elected to the city council, says the San Francisco Xcws-Letter. lie died in 1S'.", and ;;ince then she has devoted herself almost entirely to charity, her attention being, however, foremost ly directed to masonic enterprises.She was elected a member of the board of trustcesof the. masonic temple, a circumstance unparalleled in the history of freemasonry.

There was an unacimons meeting at the Probate Court room Saturday even ing, of theTunsan Silver Club. Mem bera of both Political Parties vere pres ent and universal good feeling prevailed among those prese: t One eeutiment seemed to prevail, and that was that the Government must give us ths need ed relief for our silver industry. At ose period in the convention whilst nom i nations were ia process for Executive officers, one gentleman of the Democrat ic party demurred somewhat lo what he considered as too many Republicans being placed upon the Executive Com mittee. This was promptly and cour- teoutdy met by a prominent Republican immediately rising and plating in nom ination the name of a prominent Democrat; this was immediately seconded and curried. There seemed to be one view taken of this silver question and that a determined one namely that it was it question fraught with the utmost ira portative to the entire Pacific coast. To this end there w aj to be no swerv ing from the path of duty, no jarring or ducord to frustrate the accomplishment of an end which meant the rekindling and lighting of our smelter tires and the busv echoes of manv stamo mills JasFinleya prominent mine owner of Pima county and a gentleman well ko'vjrn for his liberality an Ian employ er cf quite a number or men was unani mously fleeted chair.nin.

Judge Chus.

Scraps From its Past History.FIRST WHITE WOMAN Transformation From Desert to Paradise. Splendid Inducement- Offered to Homo Seekers- Pheno m Inavl Sno oas of Sheep Raisers. During a brief lay over at Tempe to day all gleamed a few notes possibly of interest. About twenty years ago C. T. Hayden, a Tucson pioneer of T8, pre empted the present eite cf Tempe, and a month later erected the Hayden Flour ing Mid, which is still in operation, though improved from time to time un til now it is one of the most complete in the territory. The latest improve ment wa9 the addition of the Cornelius International roller. It wai the second mill built ic the valley, the Helen Mill five miles below, teing finished two years previous. Ihe llaydeu is the only mill in this valley which is operated by water power, and it has a capacity of one nundrea barrels per day. This point was first known as II ay den's Ferry. Soon after establishing the mill Mr. Hayden opened a small store, which he has kept space in size with the steady growth of the settlement until today it ranks only second to Goldncan & Co.'e great general store at Phenix. To Mr. Hayden also belongs the credit of giving birth to the first newspaper here the Tempe News, now edited and managed by KTrk Miller. Mrs. Hayden it is claimed, was the first white woman to brave 6etttiement in the Salt river valley. A number of other enterprises of much importance to the settlement were fathered by Mr. Hayden and he still lives to enjoy the fruits of his bard labor, and delight in the progress and prosperity visible on every hand, the happy realization predicted by his wise oret ight on the eventful day he located on tne-Jrnd. lne immediate- settle ment embraces a thrifty population of about one thousand. There are half a dozen stores besides Hayden's, black en ith shops, meat markets, and other branches of trade necessary for the com munity, including two banks, the oldest bdicg the Bank of Tempe, with 8 casb capital stock of $50,000, and officered by G. Linington as president, P. P. Daggs, vice-Presidect and M. II. Lining- ton, cashier. Ihe remainder of the tockhclders are W . A. Daggs, Chas. lobert8, C. T. Hayden, Robert Bowen, nd C. M. Linington. President Lin- ngton informed me that this bank is soon to be merged into the First Xa- ionsl Bank of Tempe," and that it will be in ull operation as sucft within sixty uys. The business is now large and acre isicg at a healthy rate. The Farm era and Merchants' Bank, lately opeLed, has also an authorized capital stock of $o0,000 with substantial incorporator?. ohn S. Armstrong is president, L. G. Frankinberg, vice-president and F. G. Dodson, cashier. There are two (lum ber jards, the L. W. Blinn Co., and H. W. Rider. By the agent of the former learned that the settlement is improv ing rapidly as the increase of the lum ber trade unmistakably indicates. J he sales of 1890 were 312,000 ft. while' 1791 hows an increase to oGO.000 ft. Ibis ratio is being more than maintained. During the first five months of this ear, the fales already reaching over 400,000 ft. The manager of the Ryder Lumber Co., reported a similar increee of his busine'S. There are the three hotels, the Tempe, the Gregory, and the Arlington. Schools and churches are well fostered. Besides good graded schoo's, here is the seai of the Arizona .Normal, as well as tne most important territorial Agricultural experimental station. A large evarorat- ug end canning factory was established here last yer, aud preparations are being made to meet the demand in the ncreastd fruit supply of this year. Mr. Frankeni erg, th manager, states that he believes the crop is of better uality this year. Ihe early fruits are beiug shipped away lo various points the territory and 2Sew Mexico and some as far as Chicago, yieldicg fair retu-ns to growers. He estimates tnat one hundred and fifty acres of orange trees were planted in the vicinity this year, and about double this amountof ther fruits. Ibe cereal and hay crop is excellent. A careful estimate of the dt River valley grain crop puts it at 20,000,000 pounds. 12,000,000 pounds on the Pi.fcix side and 14,0tX),000 pounds on the Tempe sidd. It is not so easy to timate the tonnage of the alfalfa crop now as only the second crjp is being arvested, and it is not known bow much meadow may be turned into pas ure during the season. . Mui h depends pon the summer rain fall. A good profit was reaped from the tdfalfa crop last year, both in hay and the pasturage and the area of this lant is increasing more rapidly than ever hereabouts. It is a great relief from speeding on the train through tbe hot dusty desert to be suddenly ushered ioto this grand alley of verdure, lined with avenues cf magnificent shade trees, dotted with! comfortable homes, which are invariably surrounded with laden fruit orchards of countless varieties. The contrast is wonderful. Tempe has strong inducements to offer the homs eker. The land is cheap (aimo-t a gut) in companion to prices paid in California locahtits of similsr advantegc-s.

I lAtrnml some facts concern- ', World." ing their methods of conducting the business in this territory that might be of interest to others. For certainly if their opinion is correct that Arizona is a perfect sheep country, and that there is pasturage within its border for a million head more than it contains, the time is hastening when the domain utilized for this purpose will be thus occupied. It is generally a conceded fact that in many portions of the territory cattle ranges are no longer well suited for the purpose, and the business is declining. In a proportionate ratio sheep must take their plac, and the aggregate as individual wealth of the country will be greatly increased annually by the change. The Dagg brothers came to Arizona ten years ago with only 2100 head of sheep. Their only capital then was a camp kit and a summer's grub stake. The territory is'genera'ly free from poisonous weeds and there is no dismasts except scab which is no', attributable to citmate. These gentlemen claim :hat the stock is not or ly very prolific here, but the loss in Iamb n? is remarkably light, so mild and genial is the climate; furthermore the stre'e fattens rapidly and shears well. Tne annual yield per head of their bands is eight pounds, but have a herd of 2000 thoroughbred French-American Morno ewes that yields double this amonut per head. They have also a band cf 1000 French-American Merino bucks (claimed to be the largest flock cf rams in America) that yield from twenty to thirty pounds per headyearly.- Their preference is for this breed, being larger and hence better adapted for mutton than the Spanish stck, and are better travelers. They have been awarded by three Territorial Exposition and Driving Park Association for Ave consecutive years the first premium on Merino sheep of Xew Mexico find Arizona, aod last year thev took first premium at Albuquerque, X.

Tempe, June 14, 1892. Read It Every man and woman m this city ought to study; not merely read, an ar ticle entitled "Impending Paganism in New England," in the June Forum, by W. V.

It is a showing of the decline of church going and Christianity in small towns, and an appeal for the town cr People's church. He shos by actual statistics, tha in fiftetn counties in Miin, there are 133,445 families and 0.842 of them are not attendant upon any church, The cause is put down as excessive empha-is upon the imman ence of Godw "God is considered as a Being who laid down certain laws, made covemnts drew up a p an of salvation. was aparty to certain tcan-actione, pub- shed certain borks two or three thous and yewrs ago.'

How the save i soul should oehave ab home; how it should do busi ness; now it can make the community happier He says, "the hope lies in the possibility of the broader men in all the denominations of a town coming together, and in entire disregard of exist ing denominational lives, forming tbera-eeives into a congregation, and cal'iog a minister solely on his merits " It woild be necessary to confine the creed of such a town church to the fundamental prnciples of Christian truth and life. Belief in an Infinite Father, who wills the good of His children; belief in Christ as the incarnation of God's loving will; bel ef in the spirit of love and good will; belief in the state, the school, the library, the reading room, tbe social circle, the club,th fair bargain,the helping hand, the restful Sabbath, the bib'.e as a guide. We are of the opinion that more than a hundred men here in Tucson, cen be found who would gladly become identified with a congregation, or society, a town or a people's church of this kind, who now, either chafe under tbe traditional restrictions of merely abstract religion, or do not attecd service at any church.

Old Uncle Billy Rhodes, of this seashore borough, the quaintest borough in eastern Connecticut, died recently at his trim little home on Peppermint hill, in the suburbs, aged about sixtj'-five years, says a Stonington correspondent of the New York Sun. Everybody in Stonington was acquainted with Billy Rhodes and sorry to learn of his death-Most of the newspapers in the middle and eastern states knew him, too; for, without any desire to Ihj famous or notorious, he told his love in them about two-score times. Uncle Billy had been married a good many times and his last wife died several years ago. It seems he was lonely in his house on Peppermint hill, so every month or two he advertised in the New London Day, New London Telegraph and other papers for a new wife. A small army of women answered his appeals, and finally one after another of the fair writers came over to Stonington to size lain up for a husband. It was one of the old man's cuiious crotchets that the aspirant for his hand must come to him. When they were in the presence of Uncle Billy sub- sequent proceedings interested them no more. They went"right awav, some of them not even taking the pains to say farewell to him, and all declared that Mr. Rhodes was "so mortal homely that no woman in her right mind could ever think of marrying him." Hence Uncle Billy died a widower. His remains were iu"ca in tne unotics iamuy iranai plot Population of Rome. The population of the city of Rome, which by the census of 1SS1 was 273.000, is now over 500.000, having nearly doubled within the last ten years.

Special Points of Interest to Eastern Tourists- It requires but a little stretch of the imagination to picture Phenix, tbe cap-itol ef Arizona, a city of fifty thousand inhabitants by the opening of the twentieth century. Situated as she is, ia the heart of half a miilion acres of available fertile land, susceptible of pro ducing almost an infinite variety of fruits, vegetables, and cereal?, and sur rounded by a rich and varied mineral region, but scantily developed all of which is tributary, tbe enthusiasm of Phoenicans is certain'y well grounded, and their occasional "blowing" pardonable. The population is atria ly about six thousand and increasing in a rapid ratio yearly. Its broad streets running at right angel--, and lined with neat and attractive buildings and fine shade trees, impresses tbe vioitcr with the id a that her citizens not only intend to die here, but propose uho to eojoy h'Mne-lik-1 wmforts while they live: Phenix is verily a modern American city, has miles of street railways, gas and electric light elegant and substantial storts, tewn, county, and Territorial buildings, and U connected with the S.

Thj city is possessed of many enterprising peopje, and tneir number is being constantly augmented. Alive to the value of sanitarium laws as well as what is pleasing to the eye, the authorities have contracted for a complete system of sewerage, and have placed tbe management of the construe tion in the hands of W.

The actual work of laying the pipe has commenced. .One of the most useful, and what should prove the most profitable enter prise inaugurated Li. is year, is the pack leg factory operat'tg under the corporate name of the Phenix Packing com-pnny. The gentlemen composicg the organization are late of Minneapolis. Their outlay for the construction of a necessary building and for plant amounts to -t),000. Their process is of popular adoption throughout Califor nia, and only merits special notice from the fact that it is the first establishment of the kind in the territory. A few years hence such institutions will be so numerous that their existence may fail to exci'e comment. This company is a pioneer, and deserving of every encouragement and the esoecial patronage of tbe people generally throughout the territory. I am assured that the company is ready to compete with aoy on the coast. Operations be gan June 1st and they are expected to continue throughout the season. The etti mated probable out-put will be 50,- 000 cans of apricots, 500 a allons of jelly and 20U) cats of jam. The aggregate amount will be about half a million cars of various fruits and vegetables.

Among the many orchardists in the vicinity is the practical hor.icultunst, K. E. Farring- ton. His fruit orchard, nursery an 1 vines cover about one hundred acres.

THE ACTUALITIES OF THE SIT U ATI ON- A Republican party national political ! campaign, is never one of niere personalities. It never degererate-i into that. While the Republican party eaves the' crown of public honor, for its actual leadership, it is always a party of principles. It is a party of aims. It is always a party of construction. The party supports the interevs of America, not of any individual American. Under it8 6way, the vast, indu trial system, hi;s made our country the richef-t atid the grandest in the worid. Touay the It-- puuiican party siita couimi trd tu ai great and precious trust; the political supremacy and eecuiity of nil tht j p America nas actoinp!ireJ. it guarantees the ultimas tafet of the tes? interests of its peoj ;e.

It i a party tb'at represents in its principles and in their applicatioc, th? bs? and the most advanced thought of the world; the highest form of the human government; the greates' amount of liberty to the cit.zeu. In the face of uch facts, even the intimation, thai there is in harmony of a disruptive character, in the Reputlican party, is a libel. It i an impeachment of the good sense of any in telligent Republican to say, that be. cause his cnoice of a laader was uot the choice of the National Convention, ergo, he will fail to accept the duties and privileges of his party. When social order is threatened; when financial order is threatened; when the stability of our institutions is threatened; when from any cause, the great heart of the American people is moved to a s-nse of .danger, Republicans thrown a-ide at once all minor diff. r ncefc, and gather around the chosen leader and his standard of Renublicauism, as the n en in blue, gathered around the oi l ti-g iu the dark days of tne natioD. As that flag j represented the principle of Atmrict?n ! union, eo the man w ho ie cnot-n by the ' representatives of the party, represents t the principles of the party.

Men qualified by intelligence ;a.1 common honest', to belong to tr e R ub'i'-an party, are not going to abandon it magnificent pretence &od prest-ce on any mere transient whimsicality of personal like or di like. The very best manhood of this natutn hs cryetalized in the Republican party. It is a mn hood of conviction, .f principle, of moral motive, that outreacbes and absorbs ail personality, in political campaign. Let all Republicans reineaiber that if the Democrats w in this fail they will undoubtedly get control of every department of the government and have full swing. The four years Cleveland spent in the white house, handicapped by a Republican senate, will be as in-nocous desuetude" itself compared to the exploits of the Democracy when in full power and free t let themselves loose. Owing to the peculiar situation the Democrats, if they win this fall, will probably carry everything with them. They have not had such a chance eince the war and they are getting ready for such a fight a9 is not often seen. If there ever be a time for Republicans to sulk or lose or throw sway their votes ii is net this year. Ae one of the most distinguished Republican leaders said recently: "Men areuotbing; the party is everything." Tue result of the election next Novem- i ber will be felt for the next quarter of a century. Jeiry Simpson called Snodgrass of r A?Hid trm. Cleveland is jast now prenting a very undignified picture of a scramble for a third Domination. No Democrat hr.s the temerity to suggest a southern man as a candidate for J president. The oi l frame of hood wink ing fcooie northern eiaie lo help or i the solid eouth by choosiig a northern candidate will not be changed this year. In the Republican senate the free silver men got a f.ir bearing, while in the Democratic house they had debate cut f by gag law, aud in consequence of Seaker Crisp's extraordinary ruling they were uot permitted even to have a vote ou the free coinage bi:l. T get rid of important questions by Uhg law and and arbitrary parliamentary rulings is a Domocratic, and not a Republican method. It is to be hoped that the performance, of candidates killing each other off will be confined to the Democratic party. The Republican party wi'I need the help of all its members next November, all of those plead with the candidate as well as those whose favorites were uot selected. The proposition of Marshal Roche to tet aide eoine back street or obscure alley, for the use ol public wameu is an excellent one and should be seriously considered by the authorities. The 750 yard limit works serious hardships to many repeetab;e families and neighborhoods, by the location of bouses cf iii r-.'pu'e iu them, and thie could be ayo:led by f. showing the suggestions offered by the Marshal.

That will Le sufficient for park purposes for this city for the next 20 years to come, and by the time Tucson has overgrown the same as a pleasure resort, it will be in order to establish a park east of the railroad as the city will nndoubted'y grow in that direction. So we say cut it down if it can be done to the advantage of the city. With the money thu realiz-nJ, the remaining ten acre- could be improved and made into a b-autiful park or the " money could be used as a nucleus for a sewerage fund, a something the city is fearfully and wonderfully in need of.

Fob cold comfort to the Democrncy who have been flattarinqf themselves that the bare men ion of Harr eon's name in Colorado would throw the good people of that state into a fit of hysteric we take pleaenre in republishing the following editorial from the Denver Republican, the leading paper in Colorado. It says: President Harrison's renorninatior. which was accomplished on the first ! ballot yesterday by an overwhelming for the Republican party in Xoveinber. i Among ad the men ejioken of for this nomination durirg the past vear he was i i .u t l- i .. ( by fay the fittest, and in selecting him ) the Republican Xational Convention 1 added another triumph of wisdom to I the many wno have distinguished simi-' 1 l a: : i i lAl LKJUIfB IU IUH JJilfciU It is not necessary at this time to s;eak of his fitness to the honor thus bestowed upon him, because his administration during the first term proves that to the satisfaction of all. He has , 6tood up level with every emergeucy he r has been called upon to face both at j home and abroad, and it is impossible t J imagine any contingency or complication in the affairs of the government with which he could not. deal as ruc-cesssfully .as any other man who -has ever held the otlije of president. That he will be. re-elected by an increased maj rity is our sincere belief. He has been tried and not found wanting during one term, and no good Republican can withold his bal'ot from hicn in November. Thit his candidacy will call out the fu'.l strength of the p irty at the polls is proved by the fact that it did so in lcSS, when be was little known. Since then he has grown immeasur ably in the estimation of his fellow citizens, legard'ess of partisan tian, and especially in the contidenca of h's ow n party. The Republican feels just pride in recalling the fact that for more than a year it has rteadfastly predicted the renomination of Mr. H irrison on the first ballot, and as usual in all important public matters, our judgment has been approved by the rpi It,. We also correctly foretold the course that would be t.ken by the convention on the two leading questions of silver coinage and the purity of the ballot. Rkferino to the action of Senator Teller find Wolcot at the Minneapolis Convention it says: They denount-ed the International Monetary Conference as a fraud and a fake, merely designed to aid in securing the renomination of the president, and yet when the platform heartily indors ing the couference was presented to the convention, they had not a word to say against it. If they mad 3 any right for free coinage the public has no knowledge of it, and they have simply proved that they were as impotent to help the cause of silver in Minneapolis as they had shown themselves to be at Wash ington. It is to be h-ped, now that the convent on is over, that Messrs. Teller, Wol-cott and Townend will have an accession of good sens and good Republicanism sufficient to induce theia to support the ticket heartily from this time on. When the Republicans of Colorado come to consider the results of the convention calmly and carefully, we feel assured that t ey will reach the almost nuaiiiiaous judgment that the ticket and the platform dese i ve their loyal support, and we confidently predict a larger majority lor President Hanison next November than he received in this s:ate four vears go. Accordino t- the Los Angeles Times Ar-.zjGi has the same population as Wyoming, which was admitted into the Union two years ago New Mexico bad a larger population twenty years ago ihn either Idaho or Wyoming has today. At the last census New Mexico had moreinhabitants than the States of Idiho and Wyoming combined. There is hardly any doubt that Arizona and New Mexico will coon be full stars in the Union banner.

There was an unacimons meeting at the Probate Court room Saturday even ing, of theTunsan Silver Club. Mem bera of both Political Parties vere pres ent and universal good feeling prevailed among those prese: t One eeutiment seemed to prevail, and that was that the Government must give us ths need ed relief for our silver industry. At ose period in the convention whilst nom i nations were ia process for Executive officers, one gentleman of the Democrat ic party demurred somewhat lo what he considered as too many Republicans being placed upon the Executive Com mittee. This was promptly and cour- teoutdy met by a prominent Republican immediately rising and plating in nom ination the name of a prominent Democrat; this was immediately seconded and curried. There seemed to be one view taken of this silver question and that a determined one namely that it was it question fraught with the utmost ira portative to the entire Pacific coast. To this end there w aj to be no swerv ing from the path of duty, no jarring or ducord to frustrate the accomplishment of an end which meant the rekindling and lighting of our smelter tires and the busv echoes of manv stamo mills JasFinleya prominent mine owner of Pima county and a gentleman well ko'vjrn for his liberality an Ian employ er cf quite a number or men was unani mously fleeted chair.nin.

Scraps From its Past History.FIRST WHITE WOMAN Transformation From Desert to Paradise. Splendid Inducement- Offered to Homo Seekers- Pheno m Inavl Sno oas of Sheep Raisers. During a brief lay over at Tempe to day all gleamed a few notes possibly of interest. About twenty years ago C. T. Hayden, a Tucson pioneer of T8, pre empted the present eite cf Tempe, and a month later erected the Hayden Flour ing Mid, which is still in operation, though improved from time to time un til now it is one of the most complete in the territory. The latest improve ment wa9 the addition of the Cornelius International roller. It wai the second mill built ic the valley, the Helen Mill five miles below, teing finished two years previous. Ihe llaydeu is the only mill in this valley which is operated by water power, and it has a capacity of one nundrea barrels per day. This point was first known as II ay den's Ferry. Soon after establishing the mill Mr. Hayden opened a small store, which he has kept space in size with the steady growth of the settlement until today it ranks only second to Goldncan & Co.'e great general store at Phenix. To Mr. Hayden also belongs the credit of giving birth to the first newspaper here the Tempe News, now edited and managed by KTrk Miller. Mrs. Hayden it is claimed, was the first white woman to brave 6etttiement in the Salt river valley. A number of other enterprises of much importance to the settlement were fathered by Mr. Hayden and he still lives to enjoy the fruits of his bard labor, and delight in the progress and prosperity visible on every hand, the happy realization predicted by his wise oret ight on the eventful day he located on tne-Jrnd. lne immediate- settle ment embraces a thrifty population of about one thousand. There are half a dozen stores besides Hayden's, black en ith shops, meat markets, and other branches of trade necessary for the com munity, including two banks, the oldest bdicg the Bank of Tempe, with 8 casb capital stock of $50,000, and officered by G. Linington as president, P. P. Daggs, vice-Presidect and M. II. Lining- ton, cashier. Ihe remainder of the tockhclders are W . A. Daggs, Chas. lobert8, C. T. Hayden, Robert Bowen, nd C. M. Linington. President Lin- ngton informed me that this bank is soon to be merged into the First Xa- ionsl Bank of Tempe," and that it will be in ull operation as sucft within sixty uys. The business is now large and acre isicg at a healthy rate. The Farm era and Merchants' Bank, lately opeLed, has also an authorized capital stock of $o0,000 with substantial incorporator?. ohn S. Armstrong is president, L. G. Frankinberg, vice-president and F. G. Dodson, cashier. There are two (lum ber jards, the L. W. Blinn Co., and H. W. Rider. By the agent of the former learned that the settlement is improv ing rapidly as the increase of the lum ber trade unmistakably indicates. J he sales of 1890 were 312,000 ft. while' 1791 hows an increase to oGO.000 ft. Ibis ratio is being more than maintained. During the first five months of this ear, the fales already reaching over 400,000 ft. The manager of the Ryder Lumber Co., reported a similar increee of his busine'S. There are the three hotels, the Tempe, the Gregory, and the Arlington. Schools and churches are well fostered. Besides good graded schoo's, here is the seai of the Arizona .Normal, as well as tne most important territorial Agricultural experimental station. A large evarorat- ug end canning factory was established here last yer, aud preparations are being made to meet the demand in the ncreastd fruit supply of this year. Mr. Frankeni erg, th manager, states that he believes the crop is of better uality this year. Ihe early fruits are beiug shipped away lo various points the territory and 2Sew Mexico and some as far as Chicago, yieldicg fair retu-ns to growers. He estimates tnat one hundred and fifty acres of orange trees were planted in the vicinity this year, and about double this amountof ther fruits. Ibe cereal and hay crop is excellent. A careful estimate of the dt River valley grain crop puts it at 20,000,000 pounds. 12,000,000 pounds on the Pi.fcix side and 14,0tX),000 pounds on the Tempe sidd. It is not so easy to timate the tonnage of the alfalfa crop now as only the second crjp is being arvested, and it is not known bow much meadow may be turned into pas ure during the season. . Mui h depends pon the summer rain fall. A good profit was reaped from the tdfalfa crop last year, both in hay and the pasturage and the area of this lant is increasing more rapidly than ever hereabouts. It is a great relief from speeding on the train through tbe hot dusty desert to be suddenly ushered ioto this grand alley of verdure, lined with avenues cf magnificent shade trees, dotted with! comfortable homes, which are invariably surrounded with laden fruit orchards of countless varieties. The contrast is wonderful. Tempe has strong inducements to offer the homs eker. The land is cheap (aimo-t a gut) in companion to prices paid in California locahtits of similsr advantegc-s.

I lAtrnml some facts concern- ', World." ing their methods of conducting the business in this territory that might be of interest to others. For certainly if their opinion is correct that Arizona is a perfect sheep country, and that there is pasturage within its border for a million head more than it contains, the time is hastening when the domain utilized for this purpose will be thus occupied. It is generally a conceded fact that in many portions of the territory cattle ranges are no longer well suited for the purpose, and the business is declining. In a proportionate ratio sheep must take their plac, and the aggregate as individual wealth of the country will be greatly increased annually by the change. The Dagg brothers came to Arizona ten years ago with only 2100 head of sheep. Their only capital then was a camp kit and a summer's grub stake. The territory is'genera'ly free from poisonous weeds and there is no dismasts except scab which is no', attributable to citmate. These gentlemen claim :hat the stock is not or ly very prolific here, but the loss in Iamb n? is remarkably light, so mild and genial is the climate; furthermore the stre'e fattens rapidly and shears well. Tne annual yield per head of their bands is eight pounds, but have a herd of 2000 thoroughbred French-American Morno ewes that yields double this amonut per head. They have also a band cf 1000 French-American Merino bucks (claimed to be the largest flock cf rams in America) that yield from twenty to thirty pounds per headyearly.- Their preference is for this breed, being larger and hence better adapted for mutton than the Spanish stck, and are better travelers. They have been awarded by three Territorial Exposition and Driving Park Association for Ave consecutive years the first premium on Merino sheep of Xew Mexico find Arizona, aod last year thev took first premium at Albuquerque, X.

Tempe, June 14, 1892. Read It Every man and woman m this city ought to study; not merely read, an ar ticle entitled "Impending Paganism in New England," in the June Forum, by W. V. Hyde, a graduate from .Andover Seminary and now President of Bowdoin college. It is a showing of the decline of church going and Christianity in small towns, and an appeal for the town cr People's church. He shos by actual statistics, tha in fiftetn counties in Miin, there are 133,445 families and 0.842 of them are not attendant upon any church, The cause is put down as excessive empha-is upon the imman ence of Godw "God is considered as a Being who laid down certain laws, made covemnts drew up a p an of salvation. was aparty to certain tcan-actione, pub- shed certain borks two or three thous and yewrs ago.' "God must be recognized us a l ving wd!, embracing all human relations, revealed in social relations. It declares that the only goodness of mm that amounts t anything consists in beiLg a fi ial son, a wise father a kind brother, a lov ng husband, a loyal citizen, a helpful neigh bor, a faithful friend, a cheerful c m-pamon." We want ti know God's will for the American Republic, our lit t le corner of it, rather than Lis wdl for Israel. The sermon ought to show what use to make of tbe soul after it. saved. How the save i soul should oehave ab home; how it should do busi ness; now it can make the community happier He says, "the hope lies in the possibility of the broader men in all the denominations of a town coming together, and in entire disregard of exist ing denominational lives, forming tbera-eeives into a congregation, and cal'iog a minister solely on his merits " It woild be necessary to confine the creed of such a town church to the fundamental prnciples of Christian truth and life. Belief in an Infinite Father, who wills the good of His children; belief in Christ as the incarnation of God's loving will; bel ef in the spirit of love and good will; belief in the state, the school, the library, the reading room, tbe social circle, the club,th fair bargain,the helping hand, the restful Sabbath, the bib'.e as a guide. We are of the opinion that more than a hundred men here in Tucson, cen be found who would gladly become identified with a congregation, or society, a town or a people's church of this kind, who now, either chafe under tbe traditional restrictions of merely abstract religion, or do not attecd service at any church.

Old Uncle Billy Rhodes, of this seashore borough, the quaintest borough in eastern Connecticut, died recently at his trim little home on Peppermint hill, in the suburbs, aged about sixtj'-five years, says a Stonington correspondent of the New York Sun. Everybody in Stonington was acquainted with Billy Rhodes and sorry to learn of his death-Most of the newspapers in the middle and eastern states knew him, too; for, without any desire to Ihj famous or notorious, he told his love in them about two-score times. Uncle Billy had been married a good many times and his last wife died several years ago. It seems he was lonely in his house on Peppermint hill, so every month or two he advertised in the New London Day, New London Telegraph and other papers for a new wife. A small army of women answered his appeals, and finally one after another of the fair writers came over to Stonington to size lain up for a husband. It was one of the old man's cuiious crotchets that the aspirant for his hand must come to him. When they were in the presence of Uncle Billy sub- sequent proceedings interested them no more. They went"right awav, some of them not even taking the pains to say farewell to him, and all declared that Mr. Rhodes was "so mortal homely that no woman in her right mind could ever think of marrying him." Hence Uncle Billy died a widower. His remains were iu"ca in tne unotics iamuy iranai plot Population of Rome.

Situated as she is, ia the heart of half a miilion acres of available fertile land, susceptible of pro ducing almost an infinite variety of fruits, vegetables, and cereal?, and sur rounded by a rich and varied mineral region, but scantily developed all of which is tributary, tbe enthusiasm of Phoenicans is certain'y well grounded, and their occasional "blowing" pardonable. The population is atria ly about six thousand and increasing in a rapid ratio yearly.

The gentlemen composicg the organization are late of Minneapolis. Their outlay for the construction of a necessary building and for plant amounts to -t),000. Their process is of popular adoption throughout Califor nia, and only merits special notice from the fact that it is the first establishment of the kind in the territory. A few years hence such institutions will be so numerous that their existence may fail to exci'e comment. This company is a pioneer, and deserving of every encouragement and the esoecial patronage of tbe people generally throughout the territory. I am assured that the company is ready to compete with aoy on the coast. Operations be gan June 1st and they are expected to continue throughout the season. The etti mated probable out-put will be 50,- 000 cans of apricots, 500 a allons of jelly and 20U) cats of jam. The aggregate amount will be about half a million cars of various fruits and vegetables.
